    Part 4  |  Female Sexual Empowerment with My Orgasmic Life 


    A self-pleasure workshop for women and non-binary people with vulvas. 

    Are you living a turned-on life of pleasure? Most women aren't. The American Medical Association reports that some 42% of American women suffer from sexual dysfunction

    You are not alone. And there is nothing wrong with you. 

    There is everything wrong with the lack of research and education dedicated to women’s pleasure. The full anatomy of the clitoris is *still* an ongoing discovery. Most of us were taught precious little about our sex organs. 

    Our culture promotes productivity over pleasure tenfold. What pleasure we are exposed to is usually being sold to us, and our phones are leaving us anxious and unable to focus.

    It is no wonder we are chronically disconnected from desire and too tired to bother turning ourselves on.

    If this sounds like you, join Katrina Marie for an evening of pleasure education that will transform your sex life for, well, ever. 

    • Pleasure-based sex education
    • Presence practices to get out of your head and into your body
    • Masturbation skills to figure out what you really like and how your body works
    • Take-home 20-page workbook for continued learning

    *This is a clothing-on workshop

    When: Wednesday, June 3rd  | 7 pm - 9 pm  

    Where: Health Hut - 786 College Street, Toronto

    Book Your Ticket 

    About Katrina: Katrina is an international sex coach, Bodysex facilitator (you know that masturbation workshop you saw on Goop? That one!) and the creator of My Orgasmic Life.
